De Monarchia (On Monarchy)

Dante Alighieri

Dante’s treatise on temporal monarchy in the English of F. J. Church (1878), appended to R. W. Church’s essay on Dante: Book I (16 chapters), Book II (13) and Book III (16), with the translator’s footnotes. Church divides Book II and Book III differently from the Latin text of the Monarchia book (Book II has 11 chapters, Book III 15 there), so this is a separate book of the same work.
